Description
Kingsway Hall is a public hall, formerly known as the Miners' Welfare Hall, built in 1909 for the Bolsover Colliery Company Ltd. It features a stripped Jacobean Revival style and is constructed of brick, partly rendered, with stone dressings. The building has a double pitched Westmorland slate roof and includes architectural details such as a sill band, linked hood moulds, and coped gables with kneelers. It is designed in a T-plan, measuring three bays wide and eight bays deep, with one and two storeys.
The south front showcases a gabled central bay flanked by rusticated pilasters and wings. It has a central pair of round-headed half-glazed doors with a moulded eared architrave and hood, along with flanking casements. Above these doors is a large round-headed mullioned casement with a hood, scroll brackets, and a keystone, flanked by additional casements. There is also a central plaque inscribed with 'The Bolsover Colliery Company Ltd. 1909'.
The west front features a buttressed design with a projecting gabled bay on the left and a projecting gabled wing on the right. The left side has a casement, followed by two round-headed casements and an altered casement with a 20th-century door. Beyond this, there are three round-headed casements. The right gabled wing includes a two-storey canted bay window with three casements on each floor and is topped with a central leaded cupola featuring a drum and leaded dome with a finial. The east front is similar but includes an additional door in the gabled wing.
On the north gable, there is a central pair of round-headed doors with a moulded architrave, scroll brackets, and a hood, along with integral flanking lights and single casements beyond. Above this, there is a five-light casement with a hood mould and a plaque with a wreath.
Inside, the hall features a double return staircase with a ramped handrail and paired stick balusters. Two first-floor rooms have large fireplaces with corbelled concrete lintels and polished steel fire hoods, which are adorned with a coronet in a ring and the motto 'Staunch and True'.
